| Chiropractic is a health care profession dedicated to the non-surgical treatment of disorders of the nervous system and musculoskeletal system. Dr. performs chiropractic adjustment in Arkansas to treat neuromusculoskeletal complaints. The most commonly treated symptoms include back pain, neck pain, pain in the joints of the arms or legs, and headaches. The goal of chiropractic adjustment is not only to relieve pain but also to improve your physical functioning. |
| Just about anyone can benefit from chiropractic adjustment. Dr. treats patients of all ages and backgrounds at Arkansas including; children, athletes, pregnant women, infants, students, people who do physical labor, office workers, the elderly, and anyone with neck, back or nerve conditions. Appropriate manipulation helps restore mobility in joints that have become restricted in their movement as a result of a tissue injury. |
| Many chiropractors focus on manipulation and treatment of the spine and its surrounding structures. In fact, one of the most common common types of therapeutic adjustment performed by Dr. is known as “spinal manipulation”. Although spinal manipulation can be provided by chiropractors, osteopathic doctors and physical therapist, Dr. is specially trained to integrate a variety of treatments with spinal manipulation. |
| Patients with certain medical conditions, such as osteoporosis, gout, bone cancer, or bone or joint fractures might risk further damage if they attempt treatment by spinal manipulation and are generally not good candidates for chiropractic care. |
| During you visit with Dr. in Arkansas, other examinations or tests, such as an X-ray may be recommended. Based on the results of your examination and tests, Doctor will recommend a treatment plan to achieve specific treatment goals. Chiropractic adjustment rarely causes discomfort. However, patients occasionally experience mild soreness or aching following treatment (as with some forms of exercise) that usually resolves within 12 to 48 hours. |
| In many cases, such as lower back pain, chiropractic care may be the primary method of treatment. When other medical conditions exist, chiropractic care by Dr. may complement or support medical treatment by relieving the musculoskeletal aspects associated with the condition. |
| The cost of a chiropractic adjustment will vary depending on geographic region, experience of the chiropractor, and the amount and number of areas being treated. Costs can range widely depending on the issue being treated and if X-rays are needed. In most cases, patients in Arkansas pay $40 to $70 per treatment. Most health insurance plans cover some level of chiropractic care. Patients are encouraged to contact their medical insurance provider with any questions they may have concerning their personal insurance coverage. |
